Synopsis: “The sheriff of Prophesy County, Okla., tackles a murder case involving several wives, all married to the same man . . . A twisted mystery” (Kirkus Reviews).
The members of the New Saints Tabernacle generally try not to draw the attention of Sheriff Milt Kovak, but now one of Jerry Hudson’s three wives has been murdered—and that’s a much worse crime than polygamy as far as the Oklahoma lawman is concerned.
With some help from his wife, a psychiatrist who’s conducting interviews for the police, Milt digs into the tensions that existed among the plural family and various relatives and neighbors—and considers the possibility that the perpetrator may have come from outside the walls of the community . . .
“One of today’s finest mystery writers.” —Carolyn Hart
